The Sewanee Summer Music Festival (SSMF) will run this year from June 23 to July 22. One of the nation’s premier orchestra and chamber music training festivals, the SSMF has brought the sound of music to the Mountain for more than 60 summers.
A few highlights include the Opening Gala Concert in the Faculty Artist Series, June 23 from 7:30 to 9 p.m.; “Symphonic Sundays,” concerts at 2:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. each Sunday from July 1–22; the Faculty Artist Series on Wednesday and Saturday evenings; and the annual Fourth of July Patriotic Celebration (attendance is free for this special concert).
In addition to the Fourth of July concert, Friday evening concerts showcasing student chamber ensembles and Saturday morning concerts in Guerry Garth also are free to the community. All are welcome to bring a picnic lunch and enjoy a Saturday outdoor concert.
